It seems quite a few reports are coming in of scenarios failing to load with the new Emma Pack. You need to have the Pre-Corporate Paint pack update installed. The old pack from 2.1a is not sufficient, the stocks have been changed to be compliant with the pack features. You can get it here : backdatedtrainsim.weebly.com/virtual-district-line.htmlScroll down to the bottom of the page for the Pre-Corporate Paint Pack.

Seem to have a problem with T/OP Man ECD78 Final run scenario. Get held on signal WM23B Ealing common, doesn't seem to clear. Arriving at signal at 15.53 service 27 pulls up behind at 15.56. Any ideas? or is it me. Would like to finish as it is last scenario. Super scenarios by the way. Thanks in advance.

I think you are arriving too late at ECM,
Backtrack a little, do you get held on the bank after Acton Town ? You should get a message at Acton Town telling you that a Piccadilly service has priority over you on the bank and you will wait until he passes, then you follow him through ECM. Service 27 is a later service which you shouldn't see until you get to WM1 at Hangar Lane Junction after you have dropped your pax at Ealing Broadway. Service 27 then crosses the junction as you approach. I'd say you're running about 3 or 4 minutes late which borks the scenario. Topples it over. Try to keep to line speed and don't dawdle taking screen grabs on the way and all will run fine. The end of the scenario is quite finely timed and you need to be where the dispatcher thinks you should be for it all to mesh together.

Good to hear that fixed the issue Ian. Glad you enjoyed the pack as much as we enjoyed producing it. Getting the end portion to work well depends on the player performance a bit more than we would have liked, but providing you can keep to schedule it works as we wanted.

Congrats on completing the pack Ian! We did make these a little more challenging and put the player in some different situations - close traffic, unexpected reds, etc. The "Gracie" music was actually played as the train arrived at Gunnersbury on the real final trip so we included that detail, and then decided to reprise it in the depot at the end. Well done!
